- I'm sure many retail workers can understand the horror I had to go through. But we at least we can be proud that we don't have American customer service, thank god that stuff doesn't work in the UK!

Tj Maxx worker here. The bit of the old lady shopping 5 mins before closing happens EVERY DAY.
Still funny as hell though!
Honestly could not stop laughing to myself randomly. To the extent i would worry others 😅
0:26 I think we like having customer service but hate working there 😂
✨ANDROGYNOUS~✨
So, people in England are honest and don’t force emotional labour. I vastly prefer that.
I work at Clinton’s! We had someone come in 2 minutes before closing, they were relatively quick and sort of apologetic but we still hated them. We also had people keep trying to get in the shop after closing on Christmas Eve
I work at Tesco in Liverpool and if we don’t have something customers want I’m supposed to tell people where the closest Tesco is but that like 8 separate directions away so I tell them about the Sainsbury’s just around the corner, a 2 minute walk away 😂 I got pulled into a ‘meeting’ with my manager when he found out I was doing this, not gonna stop because we are right by the Albert dock and so we get a lot of tourists who don’t speak English well, why would I confuse them with a lot of confusing directions when I could say ‘that orange shop around the corner might sell what you want’?
As an American I hate customer service just want to get in and out. Leave me alone
Same
Same here. Leave me be unless I ask for help.
Well then, welcome to my line because my voice does not reach. You will feel ignored whether I mean to or not.
Hahahaha what? "Please don't hit our staff?" You'd get shot for doing that here in America. But then again, you can get shot being anywhere in America. 😢
You think in usa who work in retail like customer service....no absolutely no.....our bosses make us do that...they teach us and push us to be like that
i work in the only liquor store in a small town. people here KNOW what time we close. does that stop them from coming in one minute before closing and dragging their asses? not even a little bit. pisses me off EVERY TIME. i’m canadian so i’ve got that built in politeness, but it only lasts for so long lol
I'd always call out "Shop is closing in ten minutes! If you want to buy something get to the counter or you will be locked in here overnight"
Awesome jack great show😂
Worst autocorrect I did I meant to say I locked myself out so I climbed through a window, it came out as I licked myself out so I climbed through a widow
I have ME. Though we are the iPhone version of a friend in that we run out of battery super fast and unpredictably, it is also true that we are great guys :) living with this illness for a long time seems to often turn people into deeply compassionate, wise people, who can get joy out of the small things. We won't survive long away from our beds (the iPhone equivalent of phone chargers!) so we can't often go out with friends, but we are well worth visiting
I have ME & Fibromyalgia too . I’d love to be your friend Lior 😊
I have me/cfs and your comment made my day
I was diagnosed with it towards the end of last year. Still coming to terms with it.
I Just want him to say platform 9 and 3 quarters
He obviously have not gone to the stores I've been in. Customer service is horrible in places in the US
As an European I disagree. There is no country that has better customer service and when it is bad it is done by non-Americans, not racists, just facts.
Gotta love English Dane Cook
Worked in a supermarket. Was restocking soft drinks. Customer comes up to me and asks where the Coke is. The Coke has 3 shelving bays dedicated to it. And a giant sign above announcing to all who can see where the Coke is. And said Coke was right behind me such that the customer was looking at both me and it as they asked.
After a very brief dumbfoundedness, I took 1 step to the side and did my most enthusiastic implicitly sarcastic jazz hands towards the colossal bays of Coke behind me.
The customer apologised for their blindness, I imagined them on fire and got a story out of it.
Invisible medical conditions frequently cause a form of panic blindness, usually from sensory overload in my case. During an attack the shelves look like 2D jumbles of colour and I can barely see two feet in front of me while fighting to breathe. In that situation I am forced to ask for help, but now knowing what a burden doing that is on the employee I should just stay home and shop online instead. Retail workers are so busy as it is with everything they have to get done to please their unreasonable bosses (I know because I was one before I got sick). Thanks for clearing up once and for all my concern that I was possibly being a bother. I hope you have a great day.
@@celticphoenix2579 Mate, don't blame me for being unable to see the invisible. The customer didn't have sensory overload or any form of panic attack. I should know, I get them too so I know the signs and we have training for that sort of thing.
She just wasn't looking very hard.
So keep your patronising BS to yourself and don't offload your unrelated grievances onto me.
@@PlebNC what the actual fluff?! I fluffing THANKED you for giving me introspection on something I had questioned for years. I am quite well aware that my issues are nobody's problem to deal with but me. Hence the THANK YOU. From where I am sitting it is you offloading grievances and being a right asshole about it too I might add. Get your emotions under control friend because I am NOT your fluffing punching bag. If you can't handle the internet then you have no place being on it!
For the record: when someone thanks you for something, the correct response is "you are welcome" or "no problem" of "any time" or silence. You going off like a limpet mine because a stranger took a positive life lesson from your post is not acceptable or appropriate.
I’m a waiter and once had a customer complain that her ice cream was to cold and she wanted me to microwave it, it was the middle of the summer at the time and it was boiling hot
every British train station I've been to has so many anti su1c1de posters you can't look anywhere without being met with the Samaritans hotline 😂😭
Just thought i'd point out that as an american retail worker, any overly helpful customer service is entirely sarcastic, and we are forced to do it
when i did work, at the former gallery space for where I've been at for most of my adult life, there'd be people who'd show up during my lunch break and insist on asking me questions about things like, the number of magnets in a two, four or six pack. it was on the label, in big letters and they still asked. one other annoying thing, was people would ask for things like sponges or weirder things like the phone number for my supervisor. a couple of times, some random lunatic attacked me and i fought back, they called the cops on me. i had to spend my weekend in court houses all over the state, one of the other times it was somewhere in northern Washington, near Canada. i got treated like crap at work, for showing up after that, so i ate a walnut loaded banana muffin and landed myself in the hospital. it happened, i don't regret it and i'm happy i don't have to put up with it again.
Why did the muffin land you in hospital?
@@becky2235 walnut allergy.
@@becky2235 the muffin was loaded with walnuts and I'm allergic to walnuts.
I remember getting my phone from the vodephone shop and omg it took what felt like a week
And they are so rude and thicker than a pile of bricks
Glad i found this guy from mock the week, censors are annoying tho..
If I was applauded in the US for being the first customer of the day, I'd better be receiving a discount. Not all of us Americans like crazy customer service. Lol
I promise you Americans don't love customer service, it's a very archaic concept cooked up that breeds entitlement from people when they enter a store. I cannot tell you how many times a customer was blatantly rude but made it YOUR problem they couldn't find something in a store.
I hate customers 😡😔
Why does he kind of sound like Stewie?
Why does Jack have super sayan hair? Is he going to be doing a live action Dragonball Z movie?
I feel like the apple store employees isnt even ok for americans. Especially in NY.
As someone who works in hospitality, I have to say I sometimes hate the behaviour of entitled and spoiled guests.
If you want bad customer service ,try a shop in germany....
Ferst
What an accomplishment! Your parents must be so proud! 🤦🏼
@@cdcg1231 they are x
"hey has anyone here worked in a shop?" Said the guy desperately trying to be relatable to anyone who didn't go to a private school 🤣
Old purple are annoying mostly because they act like using cash to pay in a shop is some lost tradition like they didnt realize the till does all the maths for them and think I'll be shocked and inconvenied by them being the last gereatiom to use cash but while it was more common for younger people (well under 40) to pay via Google/apple pay its not a surprise seeing someone of any age using cash or card. But young people don't give you cash and say something like *last of the big spenders" would hear that every other shift sometimes more then once a day 🙄
Other than being rude or abusive id say he worst customers are people like me who will go in and know exactly what they were getting and counted out all the loose change and just dumpvit all on the counter and maybe I'll be 79p short for my £3.65 so then I'll just pay that little bit by card.
The hest on cardsomeone comes in with Scottish money never stopped funny telling them I dirht think I could accept this foreign currency before Scottish person would magically appear to tell me "that's legal tender" and if your really lucky a brief explanation on the Scottish free banking system
For some reason this is the first clip of you I didn’t remotely enjoy, customer service is supposed to be an experience where you are the focus and you actually matter for a few short minutes, I get you’re anti-social but I assure you dealing with people is no easy task as I’m sure you’re aware from performing, but wasting a solid 4 minutes going on a moaning tangent is ridiculous 🤣
